Overview

  • Kenan Yildiz scored the momentary 1-1 for Juventus in a 4-4 Champions League draw against Borussia Dortmund at the Allianz Stadium.
  • The strike closely echoed Alessandro Del Piero’s famed 1995 curling goal versus the same opponent, nearly 30 years to the day.
  • Juventus highlighted the resemblance in a club post that referenced the familiar trajectory against Dortmund.
  • On Sky Sport, Del Piero lauded the effort while Yildiz responded modestly, even calling Del Piero’s original goal better.
  • Yildiz described his finish as instinctive and noted Tudor’s demanding defensive work, with reporters recalling a similar goal he scored on his Champions League debut against PSV last season.
